JCB unveiled special tribute to the fallen

A TEAM of JCB employees unveiled a poignant Remembrance Day memorial to help raise funds for two charities.

The team of seven engineers and manufacturing specialists at JCB Earthmovers in Cheadle designed and made the 5ft-tall steel silhouette of a soldier standing before the grave of a fallen colleague. It is on a mounted plinth bearing a poppy and the words ‘lest we forget!

Now, they plan to make limited edition miniature versions of the memorial to sell to JCB colleagues with funds raised being split between the Royal British Legion and the NSPCC.
